KUANTAN : The Pahang government has refuted a claim that it has appointed a company, said to be chaired by a royalty, to carry out the state’s"Land Whitening” programme to take enforcement action on illegally occupied land.

"We have never discussed the appointment of the company in the State Executive Council meeting, which is where all matters pertaining to the ‘land whitening’ is discussed and decided. It is not a decision by an individual,” he said when speaking to reporters. He said this in response to a claim that went viral on Friday that alleged a company was appointed by the Pahang government to carry out the programme and to act as the intermediary between the state government and the settlers concerned.
